I am thrilled to be working on a fantastic new play that is being produced by terraNOVA Collective at HERE. It is a beautiful love story that examines a normal couple involved in a sexual fetish lifestyle known as feederism.

When I read the play the first time, I was really challenged by the subject matter. It forced me to take time to examine my beliefs and assumptions surrounding all kinds of issues like love & intimate relationships, personal definition of “health”, body types & self-perception, self-love and self-acceptance, food & diet, and especially the media’s role in reinforcing negative body-type prejudices, stereotypes and bias. And anytime a project challenges me and causes me to think about something as much as this did, I know I have to be involved.

The show runs from March 6-26 – tickets are available here. We are having two special events which are brief post-show discussions that I will be moderating after the Monday night performances on 3/14 and 3/21. We have lined up special guests to participate and will be discussing transmedia storytelling on the 14th and Fat Acceptance on 3/21. The discussions are free for any ticket buyer so if you see the show and want to return for either event, please join us.
